Students will use different methods of research to learn that galaxies come in different shapes and how to classify the galaxies. This website also connects the learning to other content areas to create a balanced learning of galaxies and their make. Grades 3-5. (Sara Gonnering) [|Games Galore and more]

Pictures of sample particles are discussed.

[|Water and Ice]

Andrea Pearson Grade Level: K – 2 The purpose of this lesson is to observe what changes and what does not; to use observation, measurement, and communication skills to describe change. In this lesson, students will observe, measure, and describe change in water as it changes states. As part of the investigation, students will take simple measurements using a thermometer and a balance. The students will do science by engaging in partial and full inquiries that are within their developmental capabilities

[|Color Splash] Grades 6-8, This experiment tests what happens to food coloring (which is made of mostly water)when it is mixed in a cup of water, a cup of oil, and a cup with both water and oil in it. The students need to observe what happens with the food coloring in each cup, and why they believe it happens. Also, the students can use vinegar instead of food coloring or change to a different kind of cooking oil, and make a hypothesis about what will happen.

[|Kites and Paper Airplanes] Kites and Paper Airplanes As temperatures get milder, there can be a lot of wind. It's a good time to do activities that use wind and air. By making a kite or airplane and flying it, you can plan investigations, ask questions, make observations and predictions and offer explanations about wind and air. Grade: 3 - 4 Mary Roach
